Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a mounting portion on which an external memory device is mountable, a detecting unit that detects mounting or non-mounting of the external memory device to the mounting portion, a printing unit that prints data acquired from the external memory device, a memory unit that stores the data, and a controller. The controller is operable to control the printing unit to reprint the data stored on the memory unit, and prohibit the data from being reprinted when a detection result by the detecting unit indicates non-mounting of the external memory device.
Abstract:
An image processing system includes an image processing apparatus and a decryption server interconnected via a network. When a portable recording medium having an encrypted target file and access information to access a decryption server that decrypts this encrypted target file, recorded therein, is connected to a connector of an image processing apparatus, the image processing apparatus reads out the encrypted target file and the access information from the portable recording medium connected thereto, accesses the decryption server according to the access information, then transmits the encrypted target file to the decryption server. The decryption server decrypts the encrypted target file received therefrom, and returns it to the image processing apparatus. The image processing apparatus executes processing on the decrypted target file that is returned therefrom.
Abstract:
A communications terminal is provided, which includes a reading device which reads in access information recorded on a prescribed recording medium, the access information being necessary for acquiring content which can be played back by a playback device from a prescribed server via a network; and a playback control device which controls the playback device and the reading device. The playback control device controls receiving the content and metadata from the server, and playing back the content according to the metadata, if the content corresponding to the read access information is not stored in the storage device when the reading device reads in the access information; and the playback control device controls playing back the content stored in the storage device according to the metadata stored in the storage device in association with the content, if the content corresponding to the read access information is stored in the storage device.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for mobile device directed multifunction peripheral scanning to cloud are disclosed. The method includes receiving a document processing request at a multifunction peripheral including instructions on performing a document processing operation, a cloud storage request identifying a document to be stored in a remote cloud storage location and credentials sufficient to authenticate a user to the cloud storage location and accessing the cloud storage location using the multifunction peripheral to confirm that the credentials are sufficient to authenticate a user to the cloud storage location before beginning the document processing request. The method further includes completing the document processing request using the multifunction peripheral to thereby generate a processed document and storing the processed document in the cloud storage location directly from the multifunction peripheral device using the credentials.
Abstract:
A method for automatic display of a spread in ebooks is revealed. The method includes several steps. First scan at least one paper book by a scanner to get at least one original page file with at least two original pages. Then execute a transcription suite in a computing device for transcribing the original page file into an e-book and write at least one spread event into at least one electronic page of the e-book by an input device. Next use a reader to read the e-book. The reader triggers the spread event while reading the electronic page written with the spread event. Thus the reader automatically retrieves and displays at least two electronic pages on a monitor of the reader simultaneously. Therefore the spread covering at least two electronic pages is automatically displayed on a monitor of the reader.
Abstract:
An image reading apparatus of the present invention includes an imaging section which images information described in a read target medium consisting of a plurality of pages, and has a temporary storage section which stores a newly captured image as a current captured image, and stores an image that has been stored as a current captured image as a previous captured image each time the imaging section images the read target medium, a judging section which judges whether a current state is a page-turning state by analyzing the current captured image stored in the temporary storage section, and a determining section which determines the previous captured image stored in the temporary storage section as a storage target when the judging section judges that the current state is the page-turning state.
Abstract:
A method for processing a file includes sequentially processing data included in a plurality of candidate files that can be processed by automatically switching a file to be processed according to a first order, determining, in a case where the data is processed and a switching instruction by a user is input, an order corresponding to the switching instruction from both the first order and a second order, and a switching direction, corresponding to the switching instruction, from a forward direction and a backward direction, and processing data included in a new file from among the plurality of candidate files by switching from the processed file to the new file according to the determined order and switching direction.
Abstract:
A network system includes an image projection apparatus that projects image data; a first terminal; and a second terminal where the first terminal includes an original image data storing unit that stores original image data and a corresponding information generating unit that generates corresponding information in which image identification data of the image data for projection, generated from the original image data, capable of identifying the original image data and terminal identification data for identifying the first terminal correspond with each other, and the image projection apparatus includes a corresponding information sending unit that sends, upon receiving the request for delivering the corresponding information of the image data being projected from the second terminal, the corresponding information stored in the storing unit, to the second terminal.
Abstract:
Image data obtained by photographing an object using a camera is stored in a storage medium that can be attached to and detached from the camera. The camera includes a device program storage unit and an information writing unit. A device program that can be executed by an information processing device, which is different to the camera, is stored in the device program storage unit. The information writing unit is constituted to be capable of writing the device program to the storage medium attached to the camera. While writing the device program to the storage medium, the information writing unit writes the device program in a format enabling the information processing device to read and execute the device program automatically when the storage medium is attached to the information processing device.
